    I have only restored one minor glue bomb, but after separating the parts and sanding the surfaces down to the original styrene level, any remaining glue should not need to be removed, correct? Depressions would need to be filled and a good coat of primer/sealer should be all that's needed before paint.

    There are vendors that cater specifically to graffiti artists?? And here I used to think it was vandalism. EDIT: Wow...I had no idea! https://shop.bombingscience.com/canada/spray-paint-caps

    Sorry, but I have no Idea how this might work on resin, but this gives you an idea of the appearance. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/141139-krylon-premium-original-chrome/

    I picked these two up at a yard sale for 10 bucks each. These are the only die-casts I have ever bought but I really like both of these vehicles! The doors on the Bugatti needed a slight tweeking to get them to close properly.

    That's for hooking up the ski boat trailer at night! Are my eyes playing tricks or are those dual winches? Must be a heck of a ski boat!

    Thanks Tom. I just found David Pirie's thread on his kit. He did an amazing job!

    Very Nice! I just bought this kit yesterday and you have given me some great ideas. Thanks!

    Picked this up yesterday. I have mostly 1/25 scale cars but I figure posing them in this setup will look OK as long as I don't put two different scale cars side by side.

    That's so that it pops up no matter WHAT someone types in the search box. Personally, I build for enjoyment and I intend (Hopefully) to build everything I buy so there is NO WAY I would pay over retail for anything!

    I have never even knew about metalizer paints until now, but according to the testors website they MUST be applied to bare plastic. I believe I will have to check the LHS for some to try. https://www.testors.com/pages/help-and-support/faqs/general-questions/

    Yes, Thank You for all your efforts and dedication.

    Well done! Sorry about your friend.

    I would drive it at night but not in daylight!

    How about making a cast of a large metal file to get the basic louver pattern? This is just silly putty to get an idea of what the impression would look like.

    I've never done one of these, but this seems like a pretty good solution. Here's a pic of a similar engine I pulled off the net. Edit: This may be a Packard engine?

    Beautiful job on those headers! The roll cage too.

    Those are some pretty cool sketches!

    I agree...a good set of scissors or a small set of pattern snips should work.

    Best to get a quality set of bits. Some of the cheap ones have nothing resembling a proper drill point on them! http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/130290-drill-bits/

    Possibly braided fishing line? 10.5 divided by 25 equals 0.42mm.

    Great job on those wheels!
  23. NOBLNG
    WOW! Absolutely fabulous detail work!
  24. NOBLNG
    Nice! No problem finding that one in the parking lot.

    Nice build! I used to watch that show when I was a kid.
